Michael Jackson
80- Nose
- Very aromatic. Smells like a freshly cut tree. Resiny. Lemon skins.
- Palate
- Dry creaminess. Vanilla pods. Cinnamon. Tropical fruits. Paw-paw.
- Finish
- Like biting into a tree bark. Hot, spicy, flavours. Cloves?
- Comment
- A rather eccentric version of Glengoyne. Very distinctive. A digestive after Thai food or even a curry?
Dave Broom
72- Nose
- Sweet, honeyed and woody. Water brings out honey nut cornflakes, fruit and nut, oak, clover and a whiff of sap and the farmyard.
- Palate
- Soft and quite honeyed. Toasted almonds, rose, dolly mixtures. Sweeter than standard Glengoyne.
- Finish
- Sweet, but oak takes charge.
- Comment
- Scottish oak veneer? A fascinating experiment, but the really interesting malt, Glengoyne matured in Scottish oak refill, is yet to come.
